Custom Built Chinese Guitars – High Quality Custom Chinese Guitar Builds

Design Your Own Custom Chinese Guitar

Looking for a custom built Chinese guitar that delivers boutique-level specs without boutique-level pricing? Our custom Chinese guitar builds are designed for players who want full control over their instrument’s look, feel, and performance — without spending thousands on a big-name brand.

Whether you’re after a modern shred machine, a vintage-inspired classic, or something completely unique, we specialise in building high-quality custom guitars manufactured in China to your exact specification.


Why Choose a Custom Built Chinese Guitar?

Over the last decade, Chinese guitar manufacturing has improved dramatically. Many well-known global brands now produce instruments in China due to the combination of:

  1. Advanced CNC precision manufacturing
  2. Skilled luthiers and finishing teams
  3. High-quality tonewoods and hardware sourcing
  4. Excellent value for money

A custom Chinese guitar allows you to access this manufacturing quality while tailoring every detail to your personal preferences.

You get the specs you want — without paying inflated brand premiums.


Fully Customisable Options

Every custom built Chinese guitar can be configured to your needs. Popular options include:

Body Options

  1. Mahogany, alder, basswood or ash
  2. Solid, chambered or semi-hollow
  3. Custom contours and binding

Neck & Fingerboard

  1. Maple, roasted maple or mahogany necks
  2. Ebony, rosewood or maple fretboards
  3. Custom neck profiles (C, D, Modern Thin, etc.)
  4. Stainless steel frets
  5. Custom inlays

Pickups & Electronics

  1. HH, HSS, SSS or custom configurations
  2. Coil splitting and advanced wiring
  3. Active or passive pickups

Branded or unbranded options

Hardware

  1. Fixed bridge or tremolo systems
  2. Locking tuners
  3. Gold, chrome or black hardware
  4. Left-handed builds available

Finishes

  1. Gloss, satin or matte
  2. Burst, relic, solid colours or custom artwork
  3. Natural, worn or vintage-style finishes

If you can describe it, we can build it.


Custom Chinese Guitar vs Big Brand Custom Shop

Many players compare a custom built Chinese guitar to expensive custom shop instruments. While custom shop guitars from brands like Gibson or Fender can cost several thousand pounds or dollars, a custom Chinese guitar can deliver:

  1. Comparable visual quality
  2. Modern manufacturing precision
  3. Reliable hardware options
  4. Significant cost savings

The main difference? Branding and resale value — not necessarily playability or tone.


Who Are Custom Chinese Guitars For?

A custom Chinese guitar build is ideal for:

  1. Players wanting unique specs
  2. Guitarists building stage instruments
  3. Musicians experimenting with unusual designs
  4. Collectors wanting affordable replicas or inspired models
  5. Intermediate to advanced players upgrading from stock models

If you know what you want but don’t want to overpay for a logo, this is the perfect solution.


Quality Control & Setup

Every custom built Chinese guitar goes through:

  • Factory quality inspection
  • Hardware and electronics testing
  • Final setup and playability adjustment

We recommend a professional setup upon arrival to tailor action and intonation to your playing style.


How the Custom Build Process Works

  1. Choose your base style (LP, ST, modern super-strat, offset, etc.)
  2. Select your specs (woods, pickups, hardware, finish)
  3. Confirm build details
  4. Production begins
  5. Final inspection and shipping

Typical build times range from 3–8 weeks depending on complexity.


Are Custom Built Chinese Guitars Good?

Yes — when built to proper specification and quality-checked carefully. Chinese factories now produce instruments for major global brands, meaning the technology and expertise are already there.

The key is clear communication, realistic expectations, and proper post-build setup.
